NOTES:
Known Sphere Of Operation: Romulan-Klingon border; Triangle
Data Reliability: D
Major Data Source: Romulan Sector Intelligence
The Avenger’s Blade was initially assigned to the Triangle, but soon transferred directly to the Klingon border. She continued combat operations until 2360 when she was refit with increased torpedo and shield capabilities.
The Blade was one of the few Vengeance Fleet vessels that was not directly assigned to the Dominion War but was instead assigned patrol duties along the southern border. The Blade conducted multiple antipirate operations during and following the conflict. In 2378, the Blade was severely damaged while engaging privateers in the Triangle. She was officially sold for scrap after being towed back to Romulan space.
